Game of the Week
Santa Fe and Eldorado met as new district opponents, each looking for a first district win of the season. The Eagles came out on top 22-16.
“I think we played good defense and made plays on offense a little bit,” said Eldorado head cach Charlie Dotson. “The last couple of weeks we have played games the wind has been a factor so its always going to cause some bad snaps, some bad throws and all of that. So, the teams that take advantage of that are the ones that win games.”
